Then I stumbled on this one (see attached pdf) MT3608 that runs at 1.2MHz and will have 3.6/7.2 blips. Tweak it to 1.15 Mhz and this can be avoided. Raj

Re: #sbitx mod

The MINI-360 buck converter is way too noisy to be used as an alternative for LM338. Maybe the noise can be reduced by adding a choke and a capacitor. I haven't tried. Instead I will use a LM2596

Re: Ubitx Ver 6 need PTT circuit for Linear AMP
From that circuit, connect the reed relay coils 1 - ground and 2 to TX 12V Connect NO contacts to ground and your amp control line. you dont need anything else. Raj

Re: Can't reply to CQ in FT8

You have to pick the cq and then F1=reply. I did this because the text size is so small that I was frequently selecting the wrong callsign. Hence, the double check.

Remember that there is a PTT connected to the ring of the mic plug. You need to isolate the ring from the audio card. 73 Evan AC9TU
